It’s my guess that Snyder would rather spend his money on,say, coordinators making more than a lot of head coaches, thinking that it will give him a more immediate return on his money.

Scouts take too long to pay off.

With Sherman and Blache making less combined that either Williams or Saunders did last year, he might have a few more bucks to throw at the scouting department.

Not that that’s a guarantee of anything, but it seems to me if there were anything conspicuously shaky about it, he’d be all over Snyderrato…

Tue, 20 May 2008 17:11:00 +0000http://realredskins.wordpress.com/2008/05/19/morocco-brown/#comment-1351Brown seems to be well regarded and his old boss, Bobby DePaul, has ties to the Redskins as well, so our intel is likely decent on the guy. DePaul, as an aside, was on my short list as a Redskins GM along with Ravens Asst. GM Eric DeCosta. I really like this move as far as it goes.

However, scouting and personnel evaluation has long been the Achille’s Heel of our team. Not replacing the scout hole now that Campbell has moved up is short-sighted. It is, IMAO, exactly the wrong aproach. Since there is no cap on scouts and personnel men, why not triple the normal number of scouts and pay higher wages to ensure the best scouts want to work for the Redskins? Instead, we have fewer, generally lower paid, scouts than an average NFL team. Why don’t we draft as well as the elite teams? I wonder…

Why does a guy like Snyder, who seems to enjoy overspending on everything, short the team in such a critical area?

Does that satisfy the Snyderratto bashing quota? ;)
